Advent: Fixing Our Eyes on Jesus

Speaker: Jerry Witham Series: Jesus, Fixing Our Eyes On Him Topic: Advent Passage: Hebrews 12:1–12:3

Hebrews 12.1-3: The celebration of Advent begins today. It is always a special season of focus. Advent simply means coming.  Our focus centers around three comings of Christ: His arrival in history as a baby born of Mary, His return in fearsome glory at the end of time and His entrance into our own lives. This season we will be encouraged to fix our eyes on Jesus. As we see the person, work and example of Jesus, which brings to us hope, peace, joy and love. This season calls us to examine our own lives and to be eager and confident in the joy God offers, as we reject the fleeting pleasures of sinand instead choose to be aligned with God’s will no matter the cost. Jesus endured the suffering of the cross with His eyes on the joy of redeeming a lost people and reuniting with His Father in glory. I pray this season we too, would have our eyes fixed on Christ and such a joyous hope that He gives to us.
